MICROWAVE LEAKAGE TEST

CAUTIONS
• Be sure to check microwave leakage prior to
servicing the oven if the oven is operative prior to
servicing.
• The service personnel should inform the
manufacture importer, or assembler of any certified
oven unit found to have a microwave emission
level in excess of 5 mW/cm
unit found to have excessive emission levels at no cost
to the owner and should ascertain the cause of the
excessive leakage. The service personnel should
instruct the owner not to use the unit until the oven has
been brought into compliance.
• If the oven operates with the door open, the service
personnel should:
- Tell the user not to operate the oven.
- Contact the manufacturer.
• The service personnel should check all surface and
vent openings for microwave leakage.
• Check for microwave leakage after every servicing. The
power density of the microwave radiation leakage
emitted by the microwave oven should not exceed
2
5 mW/cm
. Always start measuring of an unknown field
to assure safety for operating personnel from radiation
leakage.

MEASURING MICROWAVE ENERGY
LEAKAGE
• Pour 275±15 cc of 20±5°C(68±9°F) water in a
beaker
which is graduated to 600 cc, and place the beaker
on the center of the turntable.
• Set the energy leakage monitor to 2,450 MHz and
use it following the manufacturer's recommended
test procedure to assure correct result.
• When measuring the leakage, always use the 2-
inch (5 cm) spacer supplied with the probe.
• Operate the oven at its maximum output.
• Measure the microwave radiation using and
electromagnetic radiation monitor by holding the
probe perpendicular to the surface being measured
Move probe along shaded area
Probe scanning speed: Less than 2.5 cm/sec
